Version 1.22

Changelog

Version 1.23 - (Under development)

This version is now being worked on again (14/8/01) Progress is likely to be slow
as I don't get much time to work on bcnu.
It will be distributed in a slightly different format with
source and binaries separate. Contributed changes will be available separately and will only be integrated
with major releases. For details please subscribe to the mailing list..

Version 1.20 - 18/1/2000

be tested immediately.

also added the platform to the agent details screen.
